[EXT. OUTSIDE THE TAN'S HOUSE, GATE — NIGHT, 8:22 PM]
TRISTAN
Sigurado ka ba talaga dito, pre?
ABIE
Parang ayaw mo bigla. Hahaha.
WACKS
Mangangaroling lang tayo, kinakabahan
ka na agad?
ABIE
Hahahaha. Basta ako na magse-snare
drum ta's ikaw 'yung kakanta, Wacks.
TRISTAN
E ako?
ABIE
Tangek. Edi 'yang tambourine bell na
hawak mo ikakalembang mo lang.
WACKS
Bukas 'yung ilaw sa kwarto ni miss
shy type, o.
Gising pa 'yun.
ABIE
'Di nga nagre-reply sa 'kin e.
ABIE
Ready na ba?
Galingan mo, Wacks.
Pakita mo kung sino ka.
WACKS
Hahaha.
Gege. Ready na.
Wacks rakes his hand through his hair and starts to sing All I Want For Christmas Is You with his eyes closed.
Abie and Tristan start to laugh when they see how Yla slowly peeks through her bedroom's window. They both wave their hands at her; Wacks, on the other hand, continues to dance and sing off-key.
WACKS
Bakit wala sa tono 'yung pagkalembang
nung bell?
ABIE
Hahahaha.
TRISTAN
Baka ikaw 'yung wala sa tono, pre.
KENZO
Ate Abie! Kuya Waaaacks!
They immediately stop when Kenzo opens the gate.
KENZO
Bakit kayo huminto? Hahaha.
WACKS
Ayoko na. Nahiya na 'ko.
KENZO
Maganda naman boses mo, Kuya, a?
KENZO
Sintunado lang.
Abie and Tristan laugh.
WACKS
Ang sakit-sakit mo naman magsalita.
Kenzo laughs so hard. Wacks stood up straight when he saw Yla walking towards them.
ABIE
Hindi niyo man lang ba kami papapasukin?
YLA
Ano'ng ginagawa niyo dito?
Wacks pouts and blinks his eyes a few times.
Yla rolls her eyes.
YLA
Tara sa loob, Abie and Tristan.
Kain kayo saglit.
Abie and Tristan instantly look at Wacks.
KENZO
Anak ng tinapa. Hahaha.
WACKS
Ganiyan ka naman e. Porke alam mo kung paano ako kunin, isang ngiti mo lang, wala na, sa 'yo na ulit umiikot ang mundo—
YLA
Tara na, Abie and Tris. Malamig dito.
KENZO
Talagang anak ng tinapa.
WACKS
Ako rin naman nilalamig e.
YLA
Kenz, tara na sa loob.
WACKS
A, ganiyanan pala ha.
WACKS
Uuwi na 'ko.
KENZO
Hahaha. Napakakulit ng lahi ng dalawang 'to.
WACKS
Una na 'ko, Kenzo. Pumasok ka na sa loob.
WACKS
MALAMIG na kasi e.
Wacks rolls his eyes.
Yla chuckles and immediately grabs his wrist before he could walk away. And instead of pouting, Wacks couldn't help but bit his lower lip to prevent himself from smiling.
Walangya talaga magpakilig 'to, he mentally utters before letting her grab him.
